As we hit some cooler weather we will likely find an increase in illnesses in the community.  Some common ones to be aware of are influenza, gastroenteritis, slap cheek and head lice.  

Please find attached a link to the Department of Health website that provides parents with useful information about different infectious diseases and school exclusion.  We ask for your support in keeping children home that are unwell.  Apart from reducing the risks of spreading germs, it is sad to see little bodies trying to cope with school when they are not feeling 100%.
